If you ride Metro to DC out of Virginia for work or pleasure, you're about to catch a break.
Metro will reduce the price of new SmarTrip cards to 2 bucks, starting October 1st. Today they cost five, but riders can get a 3 dollar rebate when they register the card online. The rebate program goes away when the new cost kicks in.
